Would this work as an entry for Korea: 1950-1953?
Sure hope the M26A1 works. I’ve got one in 1/72. It’s too late for my F3D, I already started that one.
Yes, it was used by Marines til the M46 showed up. I believe the Army also used them but not as familiar with their use and deployed.
I am in with F4U5N Hasegawa in 1:48 scale !
OK, let’s do it. Starting now!

I will build the old Monogram Panther in 1/48 scale. Aftermarket so far is the equally ancient Eduard p/e set, and if the decal sheet holds together markings will be for the “Blue Tail Fly”.
Built it several years ago. IIRC if you opt for the Value Gear stowage set you need to leave off the rack on the right side of the turret as the VG set has the stowage and the rack as one piece. Maybe it’s the left side. Anyway check to be sure.
Quite possibly still the best F9F available.
I’m leaning towards the MiG. I’m working on the Kinetic F-86 from my shelf of doom right now and am actually making progress. Having a MiG-15 to go with it would look good. Here’s the kit:
First release, I think.
And here it is with the extra goodies I’ve accumulated over the years:
I honestly have a couple of concerns about some of them, but we’ll see, I guess.

Ready to change decade from the last three builds…
…so the Tamiya M26 Pershing is on,the work bench…
Starting with the most boring part, cleaning up wheels…
Getting closer to wrapping construction…
@Armorsmith, DV thank you for the heads up and warning. I still sleep walked directly into slapping the rack on the turret side!
Offically Stalled, waiting on aftermarket parts…
…just can’t abide installing these…they are OK but not what I want for the model…I’d thought I could let this stuff slide but feel guilty slapping these 2nd rate parts on this quality American tank model when no indulgence was spared on a Late Tiger build a few weeks ago.
…likewise…
So when the Aber barrel, Fruilmodel tracks & Asuka .50 cal arrive will update.
